Toxicology reports indicate an Osage, Minn., man was drunk when he was killed in a bicycling accident in Fargo in May, Fargo Police Sgt. Jeff Skuza said today.
Gordon Fineday, 48, died after he struck a metal gate along a bike path at Fargo's Dike East during the early morning hours of May 29.
Skuza said Fineday had a blood alcohol concentration of 0.21 percent. North Dakota's legal limit for operating a vehicle is .08 percent.
The metal gate Fineday hit was designed to prevent vehicle traffic from accessing the bike bath.
